Data Collection:
The dataset was gathered from publicly accessible sources, making it suitable for research purposes in mobile phone spam identification. It’s designed for use in text-based machine learning models.
Dataset Characteristics:
- Multivariate: Contains multiple features for analysis.
- Text-Based: Comprises SMS text messages for classification.
Subject Areas:
- Computer Science
- Machine Learning
- Deep Learning
Details:
- Structure: Each SMS is labeled as “spam” or “ham” (not spam) to train classification models.
- Applications: Ideal for building spam filters using machine learning algorithms like Naive Bayes, SVM, or neural networks.
- Preprocessing: NLP techniques such as tokenization, stop-word removal, and stemming can enhance model performance.
- Use Case: Beneficial for applications requiring automated message filtering, improving user experience in communication platforms.
- Ethical Considerations: Ensures fair use of personal data, promoting responsible AI practices.
